Answer:

C. Acclimatization

Step-by-step explanation:

I think of "acclimatization" as acclimating to a new environment, also it's clearly derived from acclimating. It's just another way to say adjusting to the environment, and isn't necessarily restricted to high elevations. It could also be temperature, or humidity. I hope this helped!
